Re: Out_cb callback handler in vim9

Hi all,

According to Bram example in the job's help now, 

Is it possible to pass additional parameters to job's handlers callback in vim9script ?

Thank you

Nicolas

This minimalist example WORKING as Bram said:

def Compress_OnExit(job_id: job, exit_status: number): void

    echom 'Job OnExit ' .. job_id->string() .. ' exited with status ' .. exit_status
enddef

var job = job_start(cmd, { 'exit_cb': Compress_OnExit}) 

This minimal example with additional params: 

def Compress_OnExit(job_id: job, exit_status: number, foo: string): void
    echom 'Job OnExit ' .. job_id->string() .. ' exited with status ' .. exit_status
    # Compress_CopyToDrive('PATRIOT')
enddef

var job = job_start(cmd, { 'exit_cb': function('Compress_OnExit', ['foo']) } )

In Vim9 script the type of the arguments is checked. That helps you
writing correct functions, and once written it is easier to read back.
It does require a bit of extra text.

Here is an exmple that will help you:

vim9script

# Create a channel log so we can see what happens.
ch_logfile('logfile', 'w')

var shell_job: job

# Function handling a line of text that has been typed.
def TextEntered(text: string)
# Send the text to a shell with Enter appended.
ch_sendraw(shell_job, text .. "\n")
enddef

# Function handling output from the shell: Add it above the prompt.
def GotOutput(channel: channel, msg: string)
append(line("$") - 1, "- " .. msg)
enddef

# Function handling the shell exits: close the window.
def JobExit(job: job, status: number)
quit!
enddef

# Start a shell in the background.
shell_job = job_start(["/bin/sh"], {
out_cb: GotOutput,
err_cb: GotOutput,
exit_cb: JobExit,
})

new
set buftype=prompt
var buf = bufnr('')
prompt_setcallback(buf, TextEntered)
prompt_setprompt(buf, "shell command: ")

# start accepting shell commands
startinsert
